The College of Central Florida softball team showed it can get the job done in a variety of ways on Tuesday afternoon in a sweep of Mid-Florida Conference rival Daytona State.

Morgan Stinnett scored on a passed ball with one out in the bottom of the seventh inning in a 2-1 win in the opener, while Amy Szymanowski, the reigning FCSAA State Player of the Week, started a five-run two-out rally in the third inning with an RBI single in a 5-2 victory over the Falcons.

“We got the job done and it in conference play that is what matters,” said CF coach Kerri Ryskamp, whose team is now 16-0 at home this season. “It doesn't matter how you get there. The girls did a nice job of battling.”

CF (27-10, 7-1) fell behind 1-0 in the second inning of the opener, before Szymanowski launched her ninth homer of the season, a solo shot, which tied things up in the fourth.

Stinnett then came home on a passed ball for the game-winning run, which enabled CF starter Tori Stamper (14-5) to win her eighth straight start.

Szymanowski went 2-for-3 in the opener to pace CF.

In the second game, CF scored all of its runs with two outs against Tanna Seuferer (9-10) in the third.

DSC (16-19, 3-5) scored a pair of unearned runs in the fourth, but Ill tossed 3 1/3 innings of one-hit scoreless relief for CF to make a winner out of starter Jamie Nelson (9-3).
